Hi Tony,

I really appreciate that you took the time to elaborate in detail below.  I 
shall follow-up and perform your suggestions when time permits.  Please also

Primus is also LINGO. Primus is a large aggregator and also runs a
residential service (Lingo). The Lingo service does not support invite
without sdp, unless the reinvite is to one of their services and
typically only from one of their ATA's.

>> OK, I'll ask Primus about this.

I think you would do well to ask them if they support this AND it is
very important to make sure the invite for the incoming call comes to
your server on port 5080.

I don't think your issue is unusual and usually stems from one of 3
core misconfiguration types:

1. Incompatible ITSP - Does a transfer from the AA to a user work?
Does a call from a user to another user work? (both as inbound calls
via the trunk). Is the original invite coming on port 5080.

>> (i.e. 9-...) worked.
>> I think the original invite must come on port 5080 as that was the port that

2. Does the phone ring? If so, how was it configured (manually of by
sipx)? Please tell me you didn't register the line manually using the
sipx ip address. DNS is VERY important for the refer to voicemail. IF
you registered by IP, make sure you add the IP as a domain alias, but
really you should NEVER register by IP and expect all things to work
well.

>> Yes, the phone rang.  The phone, Linksys SPA942, was configured via the sipX

3. Firewall - Unless your firewall is doing 1:1 NAT, you need to make
sure it can do Manual AON (static port nat). With pfsense this is
easy, but YOU CANNOT create port forward rules until you do this for
SIPX becuase they will follow the original NAT type. I sent you a link
of how to do this earlier, its pretty straightforward. You should be
able to use the pcap tool in pfsense and have it listen on WAN port
5080 and do a capture and see if the ITSP sends the call in on the
right port. If not, it will never work right (no matter what version)
and you need to ask them if they support this.

2012-10-19 Thread Henry Kwan
Thanks Joegen for your advice, I shall do that.  I did not do that prior to 
taking on this endeavour because I did not know this technical detail.

As I stated in my previous posting/email on this subject, I am not an 
experienced sipXecs user nor SIP knowledgeable.  I hope that this forum will 
tolerate users with low technical subject matter knowledge, like me, to seek 
advices here such that these learning and experience building processes are fun 
and rewarding.

Should I am coming across as "barking on something on the system", please 
accept my apology as this was never my intention.  I was just trying to ask 
questions that I could not find answers after searching through various sources 
on the internet.

Again thank you to all generous advices and suggestions.

Best regard to all,

Henry Kwan

Transferring ITSP originated calls requires that your ITSP supports 
INVITE without SDP.  Before barking on something on the system, check 
first if your ITSP supports this.  If not, there is no way your ITSP 
will work with sipx initiated transfers.

Hi Andrew, 

no, it's a different mechansim, ivr supports now mailbox manager 
plugins and openuc is using one to save / retrieve to / from GridFS. 
GridFS associates metadata with saved files so all the info like 
unread, duration, time received are stored in GridFS for openuc (open 
source project is using the same file system based mailbox manager as 
in 4.4 and the same mechanism - .sta, .urg xml files) 

(Thanks for checking the fix)

Fix committed, if you're installing from openuc-stage then yum update, 
if you're installing from openuc then it will take some more time

Re: [sipx-users] Getting 483 Too Many Hops Error

2012-10-19 Thread Matt White
You might be able to get the ingate to increase the Max-Forwards in newer 
firmware.

Most of the ingates I have deployed are running firmware at least a year or so 
old, and i had a ticket open with ingate to add this feature but at the time it 
wasn't there.

Regardless of what the ingate does, you still need good routing.  Even if the 
ingate can hide the low max-forwards and send sipX a new invite with higher 
max-forwards, sipx will still keep track of the hops as it goes through the 
system and if it hits zero, it will drop the call.

Re: [sipx-users] Getting 483 Too Many Hops Error

2012-10-19 Thread Matt White
Attachments typically don't make ti to the list.  Post them to a webserver and 
provide a url.

483 Too many Hops is generally because the call is getting referred/re-invited 
too many times.

The ITSP will typically send the call with predefined number of "hops" set in 
the SIP header.  We often find that this changes even within a single ITSP 
depending on where the call originates.  Most ITSP set this around 10 hops.

its not hard for this to decrement down to 0.  Call hits the ingate (1)...Call 
Goes to an alias on an AA (2), call is sent from the alias to the AA (3), AA 
transfers to a hunt group (4)etc.   A few hops are used internally to sipx 
as well. Eventually it bounces around too many times.

So for starters see if you can simplify your call routing. 

Its also good to fully qualify call forwarding routes as it removes a hop.  For 
example.

Lets say you have extension 201 as a dumy user and it sends calls to hunt group 
202.
When you setup the call forwarding enter it as 202@sipx.domain

If you just put 202 in their...it will take 2 hops.  One when it sends 202 to 
the proxy, and a second when the proxy changes 202 to 202@sipx.domain.
You can see it can eat up hops real quick.

Same goes for alias.  If you can route calls to the actual user extension it 
will take one less hop than an alias to the same user.

If all else fails, see if the itsp can up the hops for you.

Attention SipXecs support community,
We have a client that is running SipXecs 4.4.0.  The Session  Boarder 
Controller is an InGate Siparator and the SIP provider for the SIP trunks is 
BroadVox.  The client is unable to receive calls to most of their toll free 
numbers properly.  Our client noticed that prior to calling us, that it seemed 
they could get a call to successfully go through from a cell phone to the toll 
free numbers, but not from land lines.  After further testing it appears the 
some calls go through for most cell phone carriers and not others.  It appears 
most land line calls to the toll free numbers fail, but there's been one or 2 
land based offices that were able to successfully call the toll free numbers.   
All calls to the local numbers have went through without  incident as to the 
best of our knowledge.  We talked to the SIP provider and vendor for the SBC.  
They found that the SipXecs system is giving a "483 Too Many Hops" error.  I've 
attached a capture (see the 726910-3.pcap file ) from the SIP provider as well 
as capture (See the "Configured by Ingate" file) from the SBC vendor that 
was ran on the SBC.  You'll can view the capture from the SBC using a web 
browser, then scroll down toward the bottom to see the capture.  You can search 
for the error code given above.  The only changes we are aware of that happened 
on the SipXecs system, is that the selt signed cert had expired and was renewed 
about a month ago.  The issue with the "483 Too Many Hops" has only been 
noticed by the client within the last 1.5 to 2 weeks.  The toll free number of 
8004144231 was used during the gathering of the 2 attached captures.  Can 
someone please take a look at the attached  capture files ASAP and let us know 
of any suggestions you have to resolve this issue?   This issue is having a 
major impact the client's normal business operations.

George you nailed it the backup from 4.4 did not have the .gz file extension.  
When I added the file extension leaving the rest of the file name intact it 
seems to have worked waiting for it to come back up now.  Thank you very much!

Re: [sipx-users] Getting 483 Too Many Hops Error

2012-10-19 Thread Tony Graziano
ingates are pretty resilient. the pcap is not attached. the cert if
re-issues would have nothing to do with it.

its more likely a problem with the dial plan within the ingate as it
connects to broadvox. but as there is no pcap or details on this (some
ITSP's use different dialplans for LD versus told free calls) but
there is really not much information to go on.

The only service that runs on the .32 server is sipxsupervisor. No other
services start...I'm new to 4.6 setup so if this is how it works then
its fine.

This was a fresh install but I re-ran sipxecs-setup with options
--verbose and --reset. 
 
I restarted the supervisor and on server 1 192.168.1.21 it lists the
same error, "broken pipe". I found an old article relating to this exact
error on 4.5.2 and I'm experiencing the same issues and Douglas Hubler
stated then it was a bug and it should be resolved. There is no firewall
or anything between server 1 .21 and now server 4 .32. 
 
.32 (secondary) shows its listening on 0.0.0.0:5308 and it has a
connection established between 192.168.1.32:5308 and the first server on
a high port.
 
The Admin console still just reports:

Is 192.168.1.32 your secondary IP? Can you try service sipxsupervisor
restart on second machine and see if it works after (is the 2nd
machine configured from the first shot, or have you run sipxecs-setup
more than once)

Anytime I make a user change it reports the config change was pushed to

2012-10-19 Thread Tony Graziano
Your backup should be a tar.gz file. Are you unzipping it?

If everything else is assumed the same (hostname, IP, password), the
procedure would be to make sure you sent the profile to the new server
once you log in before you do anything else. Then choose restore and
upload the file. If the file is really big, it might be desirable to
create a backup (onboard) the 4.6 system and replace the backup
file(s) in the backup directory with the ones from the 4.4 backup and
do a restore from "onboard".

If you are getting error, look at the sipxconfig.og (in
/var/log/sipxpbx) for anything obvious and or post back with findings.

I am running the current 4.4.0 release of SIPX (yum run just before backup) and 
just download 4.6.0 -- per the user forum I did a backup of 4.4.0 and loaded 
4.6.0 on a new machine.
Then attempted to do a restore from the file which was created on the 4.4 
machine.
I browse to the location pick the configuration.tar file and click restore I 
get a red message in the window that says

Neither the admin or the agent UI's will load this morning for openacd. They 
both worked yesterday and yesterday evening and no updates were done to the 
sipXecs server last night. I've restarted services and rebooted the server but 
still the problem remains.

I've attached the full.log file for openacd which shows connections being 
refused.

I'm working on this now and any input or direction is appreciated.

[sipx-users] New 4.6 Beta Installation

2012-10-19 Thread Aaron Pursell
So, I've been trying to work on this new system and I've probably missed
something or done something minute to create this issue however I have a
master server 1 at 192.168.1.21 and a "slave" at 192.168.1.32 as server
2.
 
When I setup server 2 I entered the correct number assigned and it
moved from not configured to configured.
 
Now when you make changes it just says, "System error for send: "Broken
pipe". System error for send: "Broken pipe". Authentication dialogue
with 192.168.1.32"
 
The only service running on server 2 is the cf engine nothing else.
Anyone point me which log I can even look at or what I've done wrong?

Fix committed, if you're installing from openuc-stage then yum update,
if you're installing from openuc then it will take some more time
until build published. Either way please let me know if works for you
after yum update and test it, I have a button to push :)

Re: [sipx-users] External calls cannot be transferred to voice mail (sipXecs 4.4.0)

2012-10-19 Thread Tony Graziano
Primus is also LINGO. Primus is a large aggregator and also runs a
residential service (Lingo). The Lingo service does not support invite
without sdp, unless the reinvite is to one of their services and
typically only from one of their ATA's.

I think you would do well to ask them if they support this AND it is
very important to make sure the invite for the incoming call comes to
your server on port 5080.

I don't think your issue is unusual and usually stems from one of 3
core misconfiguration types:

1. Incompatible ITSP - Does a transfer from the AA to a user work?
Does a call from a user to another user work? (both as inbound calls
via the trunk). Is the original invite coming on port 5080.

2. Does the phone ring? If so, how was it configured (manually of by
sipx)? Please tell me you didn't register the line manually using the
sipx ip address. DNS is VERY important for the refer to voicemail. IF
you registered by IP, make sure you add the IP as a domain alias, but
really you should NEVER register by IP and expect all things to work
well.

3. Firewall - Unless your firewall is doing 1:1 NAT, you need to make
sure it can do Manual AON (static port nat). With pfsense this is
easy, but YOU CANNOT create port forward rules until you do this for
SIPX becuase they will follow the original NAT type. I sent you a link
of how to do this earlier, its pretty straightforward. You should be
able to use the pcap tool in pfsense and have it listen on WAN port
5080 and do a capture and see if the ITSP sends the call in on the
right port. If not, it will never work right (no matter what version)
and you need to ask them if they support this.

Good luck!

 I don't think your off the cuff observation is exactly right on targetm
 .
 Version 4.2 used its own media server while 4.4 uses FreeSWITCH and
 there
 are significant close changes.

 You could also indicate whether or not you followed a tutorial on how to
 properly configure pfsense and who the itsp is.
